The entire Republican city ticket elected in Brooklyn by a plorality ranging from 20,000 to .10.000.

The achemo for the "greater New York" 'propose* the consolidation under one city government ot New York and Brooklyn, the whole of Rlcchmond nnd Kings counties, portions of West Ches ter and Queens. The Whole nrea covered will comprlae more ithan 371 square miles and the population of the cities nnd towns will be only a few thousands short of 3,000,- 000. In the bill which relates to the sub ject, provision waj only made for the expression of an opinion on the part of the people as to the advisability of con solidation. and this Is what tlho vote of yesterday means. The consolidation will not take effect until legislative provis ion shall have been made upon the sub jects of taxaitlbn. refunding debts, etc. An lunawtan-t question settled by the voters of New York yesterday was that relative to the underground railway. The law authorizing the submission of this proposition to a vote'of the citizens declares that the rapid trsstt commit tee shall within thirty days after the af firmative vote Is announced take steps toward the construction of the proposed route. • The corporation counsel must approve of all contracts entered into.
